Yeah I am a cleaner just like the rest of you and I hate paying 20++ bucks for a small box to get to me.
Wonder how much it will cost to ship the new cleaning wand to wherever. Surely there are good wands to be purchased locally...no shipping. I think of it as just the total cost of a product that is going to help me do my work better, faster...better. It's a cost item for my accountant at the end of the year; if I did a better job using
Saiger Sauce then I have built my reputation, improved my brand, if I was able to finish a job faster...I have saved money on labor, fuel for the van and so paying more for shipping on a better product has improved my bottom line... this includes new cleaning tools.
So if you are going to compete with me in my market you should know I will be using every single thing I can find that give me an advantage over you. Zipper, Devastator Wand, or whatever it's called,
Saiger Sauce, best van, best sign on the van, best truck mount, best marketing...best anything else... We are in this game to win- We don't step over a dollar to pick up the shiny dime.
